I had 2 ATLAS tasks (dual core VM), both doing Theory-jobs https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=132072435 https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=132079518 I aborted both tasks. |

Did you change your local setup after you aborted the tasks, e.g. a project reset? I guess no, otherwise you would have written it here. Would be interesting if your wingmen also get Theory tasks. |

I suppose it was one of the BOINC-secrets. I found a vdi-file in one of the slots that should be empty. That file was not present in VirtualBox Media Manager, so not locked. It must have been a remnant of a Theory-task and that vdi was then probably used by a new ATLAS task. I stopped BOINC, cleaned up the slots and restarted BOINC. Next task was a real ATLAS one. |

Atlas doing a Cosmology-job (at least it tried): https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=140000277 |
